About the Black Swan Summit Series

Originating in Perth, Western Australia, and now expanding globally, Black Swan Summit convenes decision-makers to engage with the forces shaping the next economy: green resilient and critical infrastructure, quantum, AI, and DLT/tokenisation. ​

The Summit’s name draws on Nassim Nicholas Taleb’s concept of 'black swan events': rare, unpredictable phenomena with major societal and economic impact.​

As digital transformation accelerates and disruptive shocks become more frequent - and more systemic - the Black Swan Summit helps leaders turn uncertainty into strategic advantage: clearer risk awareness, stronger partnerships, and practical pathways to action.​

Rooted in the universal principle that impermanence is the only constant - from quantum physics to markets, ecosystems, and empires - the Summit invites participants to embrace disruption not as a threat to fear, but as a natural force of evolution: one that can be anticipated, shaped, and leveraged for resilience, innovation, and shared prosperity.​
